I just read a (positive) review that called this movie a "Visual Experience", and it is exactly that. Imagine watching black paint slowly swirling on a canvas, with some low frequency bass meditation going on in the background. Perhaps add a bit of random text. Truly a work of art (to some). But a good movie? Far from it. If it hadn't been a Blade Runner sequel, nobody would have given it the light of day. It's beyond slow. Every scene is stretched out endlessly, and even the actors move slowly. What little dialogue there is, isn't very good. The plot is entirely missing. There is no story. Nothing happens, and nothing matters. My friends told me it was a good movie, so I watched it until the end. It's time to get new friends.

This is quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seen, though truth be told I started fast forwarding after twenty minutes to spare myself the agony of the utter garbage conceived by Ryoo Seung-wan. I hit the eject button soon after. I am a big fan of the Amazia movies, but this one was a complete disappointment. The first ten minutes I was wondering whether they put the wrong DVD in the case. It's not an action movie. It's not a comedy... unless there was a hidden camera somewhere, so other people could watch my astonished reaction. I don't know what genre this is, or what it should be. It's almost New Year and I feel like lighting this digital dung. No way it's going anywhere near my DVD collection. Also not going to sell or give this away for free as I have a reputation to uphold. Btw, the movie was titled "The Chase of the Golden Buddha" so I couldn't even find it on IMDb at first. Probably they renamed it because they couldn't sell it anymore under it's original title. It's a trick that lousy hotels use as well. This movie was so awful that I created an IMDb account just to warn people about it.
